Oh, I forgot - "Something Happened to Me Yesterday". Lame attempt at being cute, cheeky and irreverant like the Beatles; 'cute cheeky songs', of which I have no use for either. Topical about their 60's drug busts? Who cares, this song annoys the hell out of me. Have You Seen Your Mother Baby too - shit sound quality to boot.

Love "Something Happened". First time we hear solo Keith voice clear as a bell and full of enthusiasm, always love when he sings "maybe he should tell someone..."

Puzzling to me how many songs from great periods of the Stones are mentioned in this thread, as opposed to the utterly forgettable stuff they have pumped out since "Steel Wheels".

Any song on any album from Dirty Work to A Bigger Bang - too easy or obvious to mention!

I was just about to post this but jamesfdouglas beat me to it

My songs are one known by Stones' fans to be "good." I just don't happen like them; there's a difference.

In both cases (Wild Horses and Shine a Light) Mick songs that are too sentimental for me.

btw Tele, I also LOVE Keith singing "Ma-be he should tell some-waan" in Something Happened to Me Yesterday.

I really don’t like Harlem Shuffle, but on the flip side of this argument there are good songs on even the less liked Rolling Stones I believe. Often it depends on context, of when people came to the Stones.

Oh another one is dancing with mr D. I know there are plenty of fans of ghs, but I can’t get into this one.

You Got Me Rocking

Very interesting thread.... have thought of another one Neighbours.. this is awful and tuneless.. I think was played live 2018 why????

Keys to your love, Losing my touch, Don´t stop, Stealing my heart. And most of Bigger bang.

Doom and gloom, the b-side of that record and Ghost town are brilliant, though! I need some sort of balance, in this world.

I can't remember what all is in this but there is at least a double album's worth of crap tunes... mostly from DIRTY WORK, STEEL WHEELS, VOODOO, BRIDGES and BANG.

Indian Girl their weakest song. 2nd Factory Girl.

The Singer Not The Song.

There are some good things going there, but it turns into a very cheesy thing eventually, imo.

Indian Girl without any doubt ("Plan 9 from Outer Space" in the area of music)!

I am with Havo (the starter of this thread) - None!

Well, since you ask anything after 1973.

Let me guess ... Ronnie stole your girlfriend?

The whole of Their Satanies Majesties Request. The period between 65-67 I could live without or (I give it that) an EP from this period would've been enough.

1. Satisfaction
2. Backstreet Girl
3. High And Dry
4. Yesterday's Papers
5. Mother's Little Helper
6. Something Happened To Me Yesterday
7. Let's Spend The Night Together
8. PIB

These 8 songs IMHO are alright, the rest of the energy they could've spent on doing a blues album or 2.

Thank God Jimmy M came along and helped them come up with Beggars

Although the worst song ever is I'd say Might As Well Get Juiced (but the title is MEGA, should've used it for a Warhorse).

Blinded By Love - A really schmaltzy tune on an otherwise great album.

Have you seen Your mother baby, Standing in the Shadow. A dirge.

Infamy is ten times worse than Losing My Touch (and Infamy isn't really that bad )

"Handsome Molly"

Ten years ago this seemingly was a fun idea. Since then we have all those songs and whatever people don't like listed in about every thread. Negativity rules.

I guess I like them all. Some mean more to me, some less. There is no a Stones tune I don't find something good in it. I guess I just like the noise they make.
